A steaming cauldron of original and trad-inspired world music executed with intense passion, innovation and virtuosity.
Bio / Background
The Crooked Fiddle Band are a young, high-octane four piece from Sydney, Australia, who rally around the whirlwind violin of Jess Randall to brew up a steaming cauldron of original and trad-inspired world music.
Supporting the dark and turbulent violin is a rapid-fire rhythm section comprising Mark Stevens (double bass, charango), Joe Gould (percussion, drums) and Gordon Wallace (guitar, bouzouki). The band is occasionally augmented by the smooth and sexy voice and cello of Hannah Croke.
From furious Romanian melodies, bluegrass swampstompers and Celtic reels executed with a punk sensibility to tragic gypsy airs and Appalachian laments, the band’s energetic performances delight a truly diverse audience with hard-core folkies, earthchildren, inner city punks and teenyboppers all drawn in by the swung groove, tear-jerking sorrow and mosh-pit intensity.
